Presentation
Comparative and International Education (CIE) is a field of Education Sciences which is
present in the best universities. It is an area of study with greater tradition in Anglo-
Saxon countries. This new educational offer of Universidade Lusófona de Humanidades
e Tecnologias occupies an empty place due to the absence of specialised training in
the field of CIE in Portugal and in Portuguese-speaking countries. It has a highly
motivated (and qualified) teaching staff in the issues of CIE, which will contribute to the
relevant training of a new profile of education professionals. This Master programme
thus aims to foster an in-depth understanding of the factors that contribute to the
development and trajectories of education systems in different parts of the world. In
students it develops the research skills necessary to understand, compare and critically
assess the education policies and practices that characterise the education processes
involved.
